Ransom County, ND - Cities, Towns and Villages

These data taken from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) GNIS
database of populated places and are in the public domain. They were
formatted for noncommercial  use by Garnett J. Zsedeny. 

Longitude and latitude are given so that locations can be plotted using the
Census Tiger Map Server, URL: http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/gazetteer. The
best plots can be obtained with this system because with some  effort local
roads down to the township level can be plotted making it easy to drive to
any place that roads allow. However, the latitude and longitude must be
converted to whole degrees and decimels versus degrees, minutes and 
seconds used by the USGS. The  conversion is degrees + minutes/60 + 
seconds/3600. It can also be easily done using a scientific calculator.
